The Complete Oracle By Larry White & David Goodsell

In recent years magic has experienced a renewed and keen interest in mental, bizarre and storytelling magic. Magic that does more than just fool the eyes and mind, magic that tugs on the heart strings, that stirs arcane fears and longing, magic that grabs the audience and won't let go. Sometimes the experience is light and airy, sometimes it probes a bit deeper and provokes self analysis and even resolve, sometimes it is just plain spooky.

David Goodsell and the late Larry White spent three years of their lives gathering the best of this kind of magic in their unique Oracle Magic Magazine, acclaimed as one of the best "little" magazines ever published. The quality of the magic as well as the artwork and creative design made every issue a unique experience. The material deserves to be shared with a much larger audience.

David Goodsell has gathered all the printed and web materials from volumes 1, 2 and 3 and has added a special all-new Larry White Memorial issue of Oracle Magic Magazine, all as PDF ebook. Over 1100 pages, 100 routines, and 85 contributors including names like Robert Neale, Jeff McBride, Larry White, Cody Fisher, Roni Shachnaey, Master Payne, Brother Shadow, Larry Becker, David Parr, Barrie Richardson, etc.

Here is David Goodsell in his own words how the Oracle came to be:

I had the good fortune to serve as editor of M-U-M magazine, published by the Society of American Magicians, for nearly 30 years. For the last 15 of those years Larry White served as my Magic Editor. In the latter years of that relationship we found that we shared a love for bizarre and story telling magic. The occasional article grew to a regular presence in the magazine as we jointly worked on special features, such as our "Haunted" issue, and the monthly "Shadowland" column. When I stepped down as editor, Larry and I decided to venture into our own publishing project with Oracle Magic Magazine, a combination print and on-line magazine devoted to mentalism, bizarre and story-telling magic. We completed three volumes before Larry's health began to fail and we decided to end the venture. While I could have continued on my own, I really didn't want to do that at the time.
